Lt. governor Kim Guadagno to deny Hoboken mayor’s Christie claims

New Jersey Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno “categorically deny” allegations Monday that she gave Hoboken’s Mayor an ultimatum to support a redevelopment plan backed by Gov. Chris Christie in order to receive Hurricane Sandy recovery aid, a source said.
Guadagno’s remarks will be the first time a senior Christie official has addressed the charges Hoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer first made Saturday on MSNBC.
Zimmer went even further Sunday, implicating Christie directly in an interview on CNN.
On CNN’s State of the Union, Zimmer said Guadagno told her that Sandy relief funds hinged on her support for a real estate development project by the Rockefeller Group — a directive that she said came directly from Christie.
